How to Install apk on your Android mobile

Hello everyone.
If you are fresh to the android platform and have a slow internet connection, google play could give you a hard time because it keeps auto-updating the apps and uses up a lot of your internet allowance. Many of my readers want to know if there is a way of installing apps without actually using the google play store on android and without connecting the mobile to internet. Yes, there is a way of doing it and you can do it very easily.
First of all you need to know about the android application packages. Android application packages, apk in short are just like the .exe setups  you download on windows. More speifically, apk is
Android application package file (APK) is the package file format used to distribute and install application software and middleware onto Google's Android operating system, and certain other operating systems, such as Blackberry 10 Devices with the OS version 10.2.1.

How to Download and install an apk.

1. First thing that you will have to do is find a place where you can download apk from. To make that easier, you will find apk to download on this website itself.
2. Now download the apk on your computer.
Let's work with an example. I will show you how you can download and install Inotia 4: assasin of berkel from this website.
Go to, http://iwindroids.blogspot.in/2012/06/inotia-4-assasin-of-berkel-for-all.html
At the bottom of the page, there is the download link. Download the apk to your computer.

Now you just need to put this apk anywhere in your mobile's storage.


Once you have it on the mobile, Just tap on it once to open it from the File Manager or My Files on your android.



It'll pop up a new window, like this:

Tap on Package installer and click always button.

Now the installer will open.

Click on Install button and wait for installer to show installed message.

        

That's it, click on Open and play the game.

    1. You can place it on root of your storage, or just place it in any folder you want. Best is, Create a folder "apk" and place all apk you download inside it.

    1. No. It is not possible yet. One, it will require emulating iOS on android platform which is a touh task. 2, if anyone will succeed, apple will get them jailed for copyrights violation. Many attemots have been made anf in the near future 2 or 3 months, maybe some app will come out.
